00:00:00I'll never forget how to love.
00:00:02It ain't so bad being a toy.
00:00:07Nobody takes time to stop and think about what's important anymore.
00:00:13Teen Idol actor Eddie Ray was killed in a motorcycle accident.
00:00:18I got bigger fish.
00:00:20I got bigger fish.
00:00:22I got bigger fish.
00:00:24I got bigger fish.
00:00:26I got bigger fish.
00:00:28Motorcycle accident.
00:00:30I got bigger fish to fry in places to see.
00:00:32On California State Road 653, his first movie Rebel Without a Reason was a huge hit with teenagers.
00:00:40It had been a very rough winter.
00:00:43For two weeks in late January, the temperature stayed in the single digits, dropping to a low of minus 36 degrees one night.
00:00:52On top of that, we had a record snowfall.
00:00:56I lost my job in early January, and things were very tense at home between Rita and me.
00:01:02I accidentally happened on an Eddie Ray fan club website where I met Sam, Dan, and Jane.
00:01:08They were all younger than me, but we all shared a love for Eddie Ray and the influence he had on that generation.
00:01:15My parents' generation.
00:01:18It was late May when we made the decision to visit Fairview, Indiana, Eddie Ray's hometown.
00:01:24We would all meet up in Indianapolis, and then drive up to Fairview and spend a couple of days there.
00:01:30I would drive in from Cincinnati, and the rest of the group would fly to Indianapolis.
00:01:36Four different people embarking on a journey in search of answers.
00:01:43There was Sam, who was trying to find himself.
00:01:46Just think about it, okay?
00:01:51I told you.
00:01:52There's nothing to think about.
00:01:53Sam, are you still going across the country on this wild goose chase?
00:01:57It's crazy.
00:01:58Those others, they're not our kind.
00:02:00You don't know anything about them.
00:02:01Why, you're going off to Indiana.
00:02:03Your Papa would roll over in his grave.
00:02:05Mom, calm down.
00:02:08Remember what your doctor said.
00:02:10And besides, I think Dad would be proud of me.
00:02:14Nothing good ever came out of Indiana.
00:02:16Right, Marvin?
00:02:18Dan Quayle.
00:02:19Dan Quayle, what a joke.
00:02:21What about your job?
00:02:22What does your boss think of this meshugana idea of yours?
00:02:25I'm only missing one day.
00:02:26And he worked extra last week.
00:02:28Sam, I'm just looking out for your well-being.
00:02:31I don't want anything to happen to my little boy chick.
00:02:34I've got to pick up Rose.
00:02:38Catch you later, Sam.
00:02:48I'll be fine.
00:02:56And there was Dan, still grieving over the tragic death of his young bride, Tabitha.
00:03:01Hello, Dan.
00:03:02Aaron.
00:03:03You know, I really hope our loss somehow spoke to you and convinced you to change your mind.
00:03:19Dan, I'm telling you, I have a very bad feeling about this trip.
00:03:22Since when did you care for such things?
00:03:23You're a non-believer, remember?
00:03:24I'm only a realist.
00:03:25Okay, so what?
00:03:26I question everything.
00:03:27But my friend, I'm questioning you.
00:03:28I mean, you're traveling this great distance.
00:03:29And for what?
00:03:30Dan, I agree for Tabitha too.
00:03:31You know she was like a sister to me.
00:03:32But do you honestly believe that this Eddie Ray's gonna help you?
00:03:35Dan, he's dead.
00:03:36And he's been dead for almost 50 years.
00:03:37Why are you doing this?
00:03:38Look, Aaron, I've told you.
00:03:39These are good people.
00:03:40They've helped me through my grief.
00:03:41They...
00:03:42Look, never mind.
00:03:43I'll call you up.
00:03:44I'll call you up.
00:03:45I'll call you up.
00:03:46I'll call you up.
00:03:47I'll call you up.
00:03:48I'll call you up.
00:03:49I'll call you up.
00:03:50I'll call you up.
00:03:51I'll call you up.
00:03:52Come back man!
00:03:53You Stephan, they're going to come back.
00:03:54And he's convinced Bill Angler.
00:03:56And he's dead here now.
00:03:57For the next 50 years!
00:03:58Why are you doing this?
00:03:59Look, Aaron, I've told you.
00:04:00These are good people.
00:04:01They've helped me through my grief.
00:04:03They...
00:04:04Look, look, nevermind.
00:04:06I'll call you later.
00:04:12At last there was Jay.
00:04:15Someone who pushed, prodded, and convinced all of us
00:04:19during that hot August weekend.
00:04:28I still think of her.
00:04:34But I have a hard time remembering her.
00:04:37Well, honey, you were only five years old when we lost her.
00:04:43Just, just hold on to the memories you have.
00:04:47She loved you.
00:04:49So much.
00:04:54Dad, did Mom know?
00:04:58I mean, like then?
00:05:03Honey, I don't know.
00:05:06But I believe she, well, you know.
00:05:11Sorry.
00:05:15I got stuck in traffic.
00:05:17You're a good girl, all right?
00:05:18Can I go with you?
00:05:19Can you bring me back something?
00:05:31Okay, time for me to leave.
00:05:41You'd be a good girl, all right?
00:05:43Can I go with you?
00:05:44Can you bring me back something?
00:05:46Sweetheart, I'm only going to be gone for three days.
00:05:48Maybe next time you can go with me.
00:05:50I know that you and Mom are, well, she's mad, but she'll get over it.
00:05:54Listen, I know things have been really difficult lately,
00:05:58but we both love you very much, and you know that.
00:06:01And deep down, we love each other, and that's what's important.
00:06:04I'll see you soon, okay?
00:06:06All right.
00:06:22I've been stumbling around, blind in the dark,
00:06:28Banging on walls, screaming at everyone.
00:06:36I see you standing there, that look in your eyes.
00:06:42Oh, so innocent, but you are to blame.
00:06:48The things that you do to me.
00:06:52So you still plan on going to Indianapolis?
00:06:57That's why you're too young to be going through male menopause.
00:07:01Look, don't run away from me!
00:07:03I'm not running away from you, but I don't have anything else to say.
00:07:06You just don't understand me.
00:07:08I don't think you've ever understood me!
00:07:12Understand?
00:07:14I gave up trying to understand you a long time ago.
00:07:19You have obligations here!
00:07:22You shouldn't be going off and screwing around with somebody younger than your own sister!
00:07:26Damn it!
00:07:26It's not that way at all!
00:07:27I can control myself!
00:07:30What about last year?
00:07:32When you and what's his...
00:07:33Forget it.
00:07:40Rita, it's only for three days.
00:07:44Things are going to work out.
00:07:47You just have to trust me.
00:07:48Report card's going to be good?
00:08:16Mm-hmm.
00:08:17You like your teachers?
00:08:18Yeah, I even told him that you're going to Eddie Ray's hometown.
00:08:21Oh, yeah?
00:08:22Cool.
00:08:22That's right, I leave tomorrow.
00:08:23I'll be gone all weekend.
00:08:24Have you ever been to Eddie Ray's hometown before?
00:08:26No, I never have.
00:08:27It'll be my first time.
00:08:28Yeah, did you ever watch his movies when you were a kid?
00:08:30Yeah, I remember watching his movies on television.
00:08:32But, you know, he was popular even before I was born.
00:08:35Wow.
00:08:35Yeah.
00:08:35I think he's so cool.
00:08:37I even think Mom likes him.
00:08:38He's so cute.
00:08:40Hey, I taped a special about him last night.
00:08:42Do you want to watch it?
00:08:43Yeah!
00:08:44Do you want me to go get Mom?
00:08:45No, Mom's pretty busy.
00:08:47Maybe she can watch it later.
00:08:48Okay.
00:08:48Okay.
00:09:05Let's see here.
00:09:07There we go.
00:09:13Fifty years ago, a young man from Fairview, Indiana, left the comforts of home to follow
00:09:18his dream and head for Hollywood, seeking fame and fortune.
00:09:22Little did he realize that his life would be cut short by a tragic motorcycle accident,
00:09:27just as he was obtaining a measure of the admiration he was seeking, or that he would
00:09:31be credited with influencing young teenagers worldwide in the baby boomer pop culture scene
00:09:36for the next half century.
00:09:38Let's look at one of the most recognized and revered scenes from the history of the cinema
00:09:42from Rebel Without a Reason.
00:09:44Why'd this happen to us?
00:09:51I ain't a bad kid, am I?
00:09:54Ronnie, you're not bad.
00:09:56It's them.
00:09:56Sometimes I feel like no one trusts me.
00:10:01They treat me like a child, like I'm being suffocated.
00:10:03I hate them.
00:10:04They're all monsters.
00:10:05Ronnie, don't ever say you're bad.
00:10:07You're not bad to me.
00:10:08I'll never treat my kids like the way they treated me, or the way they treated that David.
00:10:15Poor kid.
00:10:17You know, the whole world is so messed up.
00:10:20Nobody takes time to stop and think about what's important anymore.
00:10:24They're so comfortable in their nice homes and nice jobs.
00:10:28It's all an illusion.
00:10:29None of it's real.
00:10:31It's like the whole world forgot how to love.
00:10:34Nobody cares about love anymore.
00:10:36Money's all they care about.
00:10:37Well, Ronnie, you're not like them.
00:10:40You know how to love.
00:10:42You're so nice, and strong, and gentle, and you've always accepted me for who I am.
00:10:50You've never treated me like a tramp.
00:10:56Betty, I swear, I'll never forget how to love.
00:11:07Betty, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear,
00:11:37So, anyone hungry?
00:11:41I am starving.
00:11:42I couldn't eat that crap they served on the plane.
00:11:44I mean, unless everyone else is hungry, I can wait.
00:11:49I could go for some grub and a cup of coffee.
00:11:52Sure, I could use a bite.
00:11:53Great, I found this sandwich coffee shop kind of place
00:11:55on the internet.
00:11:56It's in an artsy neighborhood.
00:11:57Oh, yeah?
00:11:58Yeah, you know, theater district, art galleries,
00:12:00that kind of thing.
00:12:01Cool.
00:12:07Are you excited?
00:12:29You know, about me on this trip.
00:12:31Yeah, I am.
00:12:34Normally, I'm not an impulsive person, but you're very persuasive.
00:12:40Well, I usually get my way.
00:12:44So, have you ever been to Indianapolis before?
00:12:47Yeah.
00:12:48I was here when I was a kid.
00:12:50A long time.
00:12:51Gosh, 30 years ago.
00:12:53Anyway, this part of town was a lot different then.
00:12:56There were a lot of gypsies around.
00:12:59Really?
00:13:00Yeah.
00:13:01What did they do?
00:13:02I have no idea.
00:13:04I was just a kid.
00:13:06Adam, you're a lot older then.
00:13:09I mean, so, how old are you?
00:13:14I'll be 36 this year.
00:13:18You look so much younger.
00:13:23So, Sam, tell me, how long have you been an Eddie Ray fan?
00:13:26Since I was about 13, I guess.
00:13:28That's when I saw Rebel Without a Reason.
00:13:30That was such a cool movie.
00:13:32It really rocked.
00:13:33You know, the grown-ups were so...
00:13:35What's the word?
00:13:36A square.
00:13:37It's hard to believe that our parents were the ones that grew up with those films.
00:13:41And they still ended up being so uptight.
00:13:43No, my dad never treated me like that.
00:13:45He was really understanding.
00:13:47My father wasn't.
00:13:48He was strict.
00:13:49He was also very traditional.
00:13:51You know, in the old ways.
00:13:52What do you mean, the old ways?
00:13:53Well, he was supposed to go back to Lebanon after he graduated.
00:13:57But he ended up marrying my mother instead.
00:14:00Was your mother Lebanese?
00:14:02No, she was English.
00:14:04And a Christian.
00:14:06Was your wife an Eddie Ray fan?
00:14:08My wife loved Eddie Ray.
00:14:11She was very Western in some ways.
00:14:14But it wasn't until she was killed that I started watching his movies.
00:14:20Anyway, now I'm here instead of back in New York working.
00:14:23Yeah, but at least you have a job.
00:14:25Nowadays, with the way the economy is, marketing types like me are a dime a dozen.
00:14:31Well, I can't be fired because I have my own business.
00:14:34I mean, if my business isn't doing well, I don't have to worry about making payroll.
00:14:38I just don't pay myself.
00:14:40But listen, my friend, things will improve.
00:14:43You'll find a job and my business will grow.
00:14:46God willing.
00:14:50Anyway, Jane, tell me, I can't remember, did your dad ever remarry?
00:14:54No.
00:14:56There we go.
00:15:03So, where to now?
00:15:05Would you mind if we drove to the track?
00:15:07I always wanted to see it.
00:15:08That's cool.
00:15:26We're dealing with my kids.
00:15:31We're dealing with the police.
00:15:33So, we'll be having fun on playing with that.
00:15:37That's our staff.
00:15:38I am told it's not المyt sharp there yet.
00:15:44Can I do anythingvalent?
00:15:45I съ Sekarj内, why?
00:15:48I'm going to see them in a bit.
00:15:50There was a lot, weren't any, it was right.
00:15:51We've been having fun.
00:15:53So, was it what you expected?
00:16:15I wish my father could have seen it.
00:16:18He was a big race fan.
00:16:19I remember we used to listen to the race on the radio when I was a kid.
00:16:23Really?
00:16:24Yeah, but he never made it up here.
00:16:26He died so young.
00:16:29Anyway, did you enjoy seeing the track?
00:16:32Yeah, I guess.
00:16:34I'm not a big race fan.
00:16:36It was bigger than I thought it'd be.
00:16:38You know, Dan, you should come back in May and, you know, see the race.
00:16:43Yeah.
00:16:44We better head to Fairview.
00:16:45We've got to take the back roads to get there.
00:16:53You okay?
00:17:09Yeah.
00:17:10I just don't like to sit in one place for a long time.
00:17:15I'll be fine.
00:17:16Don't worry about me.
00:17:17I'll be fine.
00:17:18I'll be fine.
00:17:19I'll be fine.
00:17:20I'll be fine.
00:17:21I'll be fine.
00:17:22I'll be fine.
00:17:23I'll be fine.
00:17:24Yeah?
00:17:25Come on in.
00:17:26Where's your mom?
00:17:27Mom's out shopping.
00:17:28So?
00:17:29So...
00:17:30So...
00:17:31So what?
00:17:33You know what we talked about.
00:17:36About what happened the other night.
00:17:37That again.
00:17:38We've been through this.
00:17:39Sam, put the groceries away.
00:17:40Your poor old mama's tired.
00:17:42So, Marvin, how are you?
00:17:44I'm fine.
00:17:45I'm fine.
00:17:46I'm fine.
00:17:47I'm fine.
00:17:48I'm fine.
00:17:49I'm fine.
00:17:50I'm fine.
00:17:51I'm fine.
00:17:52I'm fine.
00:17:53I'm fine.
00:17:54I'm fine.
00:17:55I'm fine.
00:17:56I'm fine.
00:17:57I'm fine.
00:17:58How are you?
00:17:59Fine.
00:18:00How is your beautiful unattached sister that doesn't have a date Friday night?
00:18:03She's fine.
00:18:04Mom, stop.
00:18:05No, it's not right.
00:18:06You sit in front of that computer all day ruining your eyesight.
00:18:08And those pictures you look at.
00:18:10You know you should be going out with a nice attractive girl.
00:18:13Rose is going to make some lucky man a very nice wife.
00:18:15Mother, please.
00:18:16Sam, a good looking boy like you with so much to give the girls.
00:18:19Just like your papa, may he rest in peace.
00:18:21You should be on the lookout for a nice girl like Rose.
00:18:24And you're not going to find one in those bars you go to.
00:18:26In those places, all you're going to find is a bunch of whores.
00:18:28I didn't raise you to go home.
00:18:29Oh, yeah?
00:18:30Well, you don't know anything about me.
00:18:41Dan?
00:18:43Back at lunch, you know when you asked me if my dad had remarried?
00:18:49Well, he's gay.
00:18:51Has been as far back as I can remember.
00:18:53Oh.
00:18:54Oh.
00:18:55And well, my dad's African American.
00:18:58What?
00:18:59I thought I was weird with a Jewish mother and a German Methodist father.
00:19:02Well, my mother's Asian.
00:19:03They met when my dad was in the service.
00:19:05Was your dad in Vietnam?
00:19:07Yes.
00:19:08But my mom was an American.
00:19:10Her family came to San Francisco before the Second World War.
00:19:14They were prisoners at the Amache Intern Camp in Colorado.
00:19:20Huh?
00:19:21Now, here's a clip from the star-studded movie, The Very Tall Texan.
00:19:28Look, Tommy, I ain't trying to butt in.
00:19:31But you gotta stay away from them Farleys.
00:19:34You don't belong up in that big fancy house.
00:19:37It's only gonna bring you trouble.
00:19:39Them people don't care about folks like us.
00:19:41We're just like something they own.
00:19:44It ain't right thinking you can mix with them.
00:19:47I see you sniffing around that Mary Ann.
00:19:49Boy, you ain't nothing but a toy to her.
00:19:52Her old man finds out what's going on,
00:19:54he's gonna shoot you in the back and claim you drawed first.
00:19:57Look, Pops, it's none of your damn business.
00:20:02It ain't so bad being a toy.
00:20:04Ain't my problem Frank ain't man enough to satisfy her.
00:20:06Boy, you're headed for trouble.
00:20:08I'm only trying to help you out.
00:20:10That Mary Ann's gonna drop you like a hot potato.
00:20:13Worse, she'll say that you forced yourself on her
00:20:15and then they'll lynch you.
00:20:16Tommy, you're a good kid,
00:20:18but you just gotta stay with your own kind.
00:20:21That's just the way it is.
00:20:23Pops, I don't plan on being a cowpuncher the rest of my life.
00:20:26I got bigger fish to fry in places to see.
00:20:29There's more to the world than this damn ranch.
00:20:31What do you think, sweetie?
00:20:35Is there a quicker way?
00:20:41Nope.
00:20:42Welcome to the Midwest.
00:20:44A million small towns in the middle of nowhere.
00:20:47Damn!
00:20:48You okay?
00:20:49Yeah, I'm fine.
00:20:50You guys should watch where you're going.
00:20:51Someone could get hurt.
00:20:52Oh my God, is everything alright?
00:20:53Very lucky, my friend.
00:20:54Yeah, lucky so I've been told.
00:20:55What the hell are you doing out here in the middle of nowhere?
00:20:56I could ask you guys the same question.
00:20:57As a matter of fact, I will.
00:20:58We're going to Fairview.
00:20:59You know, the hometown of Fairview?
00:21:00You know, the hometown of Fairview?
00:21:01That's where I'm headed.
00:21:02You mind giving me a lift?
00:21:03Sure.
00:21:04Well, I'm Jane.
00:21:05It's Sam, and it's Dan, and...
00:21:06I'm Adam, the distracted driver.
00:21:07Okay, you guys ready to roll?
00:21:08You mind if I sit up and sit up and sit up and sit up and sit up and sit up and sit up?
00:21:10All right.
00:21:11All right.
00:21:12You guys should watch where you're going.
00:21:13You guys should watch where you're going.
00:21:14Someone could get hurt.
00:21:15The hometown of Fairview?
00:21:16That's where I'm headed.
00:21:17You mind giving me a lift?
00:21:19Sure.
00:21:20Well, I'm Jane.
00:21:21It's Sam, and it's Dan, and...
00:21:23I'm Adam, the distracted driver.
00:21:25Okay, you guys ready to roll?
00:21:27You mind if I sit up front?
00:21:29No, go ahead.
00:21:30What did you say your name was again?
00:21:32Some folks call me Roy.
00:21:45What did you say your name was again?
00:21:59So, Dan, you're Lebanese?
00:22:01No, I'm American.
00:22:04My father was Lebanese.
00:22:06Did you ever get back to Lebanon?
00:22:10No, you see, my father was Muslim, but my mother was Christian.
00:22:14That must have been challenging.
00:22:16Well, it was.
00:22:17For six months, I would go to church with my mother,
00:22:19and for six months, I would go to mosque with my father.
00:22:22Really?
00:22:23Yes.
00:22:24My father, he was strict, but he was also very cunning.
00:22:29In what way?
00:22:31Well, before my 16th birthday, he told me I needed to decide
00:22:36whether I wanted to be Christian or Muslim.
00:22:39So, on our way to buy this old car, for me, he said it would be a great car to drive to mosque.
00:22:47And?
00:22:48Pretty much got the message and became a Muslim.
00:22:51What does your wife think about you going on this little junket?
00:22:54Well, my wife, she was killed in the convenience store holdup almost a year.
00:23:03Did they catch the guy who did it?
00:23:09Yeah.
00:23:10Maybe some dumb kid looking for money to buy some more dope.
00:23:15Damn junkies.
00:23:16No.
00:23:17I mean, I felt that way at first, but we just started hanging out with the wrong crowd.
00:23:24That's too bad.
00:23:26Sometimes life is really unfair.
00:23:35Dane, you must let go of your grief and move on.
00:23:38I hate seeing you so depressed.
00:23:43I just blame myself for making Tabitha work.
00:23:46If my business would have been better, or if she had gotten that teaching job,
00:23:51she'd still be with us.
00:23:53You must put this tragedy behind you and move on.
00:23:57Tabitha would want that.
00:23:59Maybe you should start seeing other people.
00:24:03You know, meet other women.
00:24:06Go out.
00:24:10I just can't.
00:24:11I would feel like I betrayed her.
00:24:14Not right now.
00:24:15Listen, Dan.
00:24:18Each day you grieve is a day lost.
00:24:20You must accept the past and embrace the future.
00:24:25Do you want to honor her?
00:24:27Honor her by living your life.
00:24:30All in good time.
00:24:31All in good time.
00:24:32Stop!
00:24:41Pull it! Pull it here!
00:24:42Do it!
00:24:43Do it!
00:24:56Damn you!
00:24:58You're not getting better!
00:25:00Damn you!
00:25:02What are you doing?
00:25:04Hey!
00:25:06What are you doing out here?
00:25:07We don't open for a couple of hours.
00:25:10I'm sorry, sir.
00:25:12I don't know what's going on here.
00:25:14You the manager?
00:25:15Yeah, and I'm also the owner.
00:25:17Dad opened this theater back in 49.
00:25:20So, where are you folks from?
00:25:22From all over.
00:25:23I'm from Cincinnati.
00:25:24The lady's from San Francisco.
00:25:26One of the guys is from Florida,
00:25:28and the other one's from New Jersey.
00:25:29I don't know where Roy's from.
00:25:31Where are you headed?
00:25:32We're heading to Fairview.
00:25:33Are we getting close?
00:25:34It's just up the road.
00:25:35Great.
00:25:36You know, this drive-in's where all the kids from Fairview
00:25:38would come in the 50s and 60s.
00:25:40Nowadays they all play computer games or rent movies.
00:25:43I don't know how much longer I can keep the theater going.
00:25:45You know, not very many drive-ins left around.
00:25:48But we've been open since 49.
00:25:51Except for that time after them kids were killed.
00:25:53My dad felt real bad about the accident,
00:25:55so he closed earlier that year.
00:25:56You know, usually we close at the end of October.
00:25:58That year he closed in August.
00:26:00Wow.
00:26:01What happened?
00:26:03I don't remember exactly.
00:26:05I was just a little boy at the time,
00:26:06but the story is that these kids came to see Rebel Without a Reason,
00:26:09and they'd been drinking, and left the theater,
00:26:12got into a terrible car wreck, and were killed.
00:26:14Oh my gosh.
00:26:15It was back in 1958.
00:26:19Well, you folks enjoy your visit.
00:26:21Thanks, I appreciate it.
00:26:22Take care.
00:26:25You mind telling me what that was all about?
00:26:28Don't worry about it.
00:26:29Let's go, okay?
00:26:35Alright.
00:26:44Hey, uh, why don't we stop and get something to eat?
00:26:47Don't you have a place to stay?
00:26:48No.
00:26:49Don't worry about me, I'll be fine.
00:26:50Why don't you stay with us?
00:26:51We have three rooms reserved.
00:26:52That's okay, isn't it?
00:26:53Okay.
00:26:54You guys go check in, and I'll wait out here.
00:26:58OK.
00:26:59You guys go check in, and I'll wait out here.
00:27:02Don't you have a place to stay?
00:27:05Don't worry about me, I'll be fine.
00:27:07Why don't you stay with us? We have three rooms reserved.
00:27:10That's okay, isn't it?
00:27:12Okay. You guys go check in and I'll wait out here.
00:27:27Hello, can I help you?
00:27:28Yes, we have three rooms reserved under the name Jane Mystic.
00:27:32I have been trying to reach you all day, sweetheart.
00:27:35We only have two rooms left.
00:27:37What?
00:27:38See, the pork producers, they're meeting over in Goodlyton, the county seat.
00:27:43And well, they ran out of rooms so we get their overflow.
00:27:47We have a contract with the county.
00:27:49There was nothing I could do.
00:27:52I'm sorry.
00:27:53So, well, I managed to save you two rooms.
00:27:56But I had a reservation.
00:27:59Alright.
00:28:00We have five people now.
00:28:02What are we going to do?
00:28:04Well, I thought you might pick up an extra person.
00:28:07So, one of the rooms that I saved is our mini-suite.
00:28:10On one side, there's a king-size bed.
00:28:12And on the other side, there's a sofa bed.
00:28:14And a cot.
00:28:16The second room has two queen-size beds.
00:28:18So, see, there's room enough for five people.
00:28:21Alright.
00:28:22Come here, guys.
00:28:28I don't think there's much we can do here.
00:28:31Jane, Roy, and myself will take the suite.
00:28:34Sam, you and Dan take the other room.
00:28:36Alright?
00:28:37Okay.
00:28:38Who will sleep where?
00:28:39You take the bed, we'll put Roy on the cot, and I'll sleep on the sofa bed in the other room.
00:28:44I'm responsible for Roy being with us.
00:28:46And we don't know anything about the guy, so I'd like to keep him where I can see him.
00:28:51Fine with me.
00:28:52Sure.
00:28:53We were going to share a room anyway.
00:28:54Jane?
00:28:55Sure.
00:28:56That's okay.
00:28:57I feel responsible for asking Roy to stay with us.
00:29:00I'm sorry.
00:29:02Don't worry about it.
00:29:03Let's just all get some rest.
00:29:06Hey, did you notice anything strange about the town back there?
00:29:17No.
00:29:18What do you ask?
00:29:19I don't know, there's not much to the town, but maybe it's just a feeling.
00:29:25Whatever.
00:29:28So, have you ever dated any women, or have you always been gay?
00:29:33Look, I'm not gay, okay?
00:29:34I've been with plenty of women.
00:29:35They beg for mercy.
00:29:37Why would you even ask that?
00:29:39Come on.
00:29:40I saw the way you were looking at that guy back there at the track.
00:29:42That's not the way that someone who's straight looks at another man.
00:29:45So I notice one good-looking guy, and all of a sudden I'm a homosexual.
00:29:49Come on, Dan.
00:29:51I didn't think you'd be so judgmental.
00:29:53Well, all I'm saying is life's full of difficult choices.
00:29:56Remember that story I told you about having to choose between being Christian and Muslim?
00:30:01Think about it.
00:30:03Well, I...
00:30:05So, did you ever regret your decision?
00:30:08Sometimes I used to wonder.
00:30:11That is until I met Tabitha in college.
00:30:13I mean, she was a modern Muslim, but she would have never considered marrying me if I were Christian.
00:30:18Really?
00:30:19Yeah.
00:30:20I mean, sometimes I believe that once we make that defining decision in life, our die is cast, and we have very little control over our destiny.
00:30:29What do you think?
00:30:30Well, I don't think things are set in stone.
00:30:33You can always change your mind.
00:30:36Well, my friend, I hope you're right.
00:30:40Yeah, I hope you're right.
00:30:43Well...
00:30:45Good night, man.
00:30:46Good night.
00:30:52Oh, sorry.
00:30:54Oh, come on.
00:30:56Look at how it sees I want a bathroom before.
00:31:03Need to pee?
00:31:06Yes.
00:31:09Where's Roy?
00:31:11He wasn't here when I started my shower, and his bed's still made.
00:31:16I don't know.
00:31:17He wasn't in the room when I went to sleep last night, either.
00:31:20Maybe he went for a walk or something.
00:31:23Anyway, what's the plan?
00:31:24I'll call Sam and see if those guys are ready for some breakfast.
00:31:27In what, 15 minutes?
00:31:29Yeah, that sounds pretty good.
00:31:31Uh, no, wait.
00:31:32Actually, make it 20 minutes, okay?
00:31:34You got it.
00:31:36Thanks.
00:31:37Up in the country, the day the spreader broke, we went to town for parts.
00:31:50I and my neighbor, a man of furrowed years, knowing every mile of corn and beans along the road like so many freckles on his arm, whether good soil or bad, and how the drainage was.
00:32:00A new John Deere tires as big as a box.
00:32:04I'm even in Manhattan.
00:32:06I'm swimming on it.
00:32:07It's a Midwest.
00:32:08It's a good place to get them.
00:32:10I like eggs over easy, toast, bacon, you know, the regular breakfast thing.
00:32:15Hey, Roy.
00:32:16Hey.
00:32:17You guys gonna sleep your life away?
00:32:20We were gonna get something to eat.
00:32:21Would you like to join us?
00:32:23I've already eaten.
00:32:25Come on, have some more coffee.
00:32:26Ah, sure.
00:32:27But let's see what the poet has to say first.
00:32:38Soybeans.
00:32:40The October air was warm and musky, blowing over brown fields, heavy with the fragrance of freshly combined beans, the breath of harvest.
00:32:49He was pulling a truckload onto the scales at the elevator near the rail siding north of town, when a big Cadillac drove up.
00:32:55A man stepped out, wearing a three-piece suit and a gold pinky ring.
00:32:59The man said he had just invested a hundred grand in soybeans and wanted to see what they looked like.
00:33:05The farmer stared at the man and was quiet, reaching for the tobacco in the rear pocket of his jeans, where he wore his only ring.
00:33:12A threadbare circle rubbed by working cans of dip and long hours on the backside of a hundred-acre run.
00:33:18He scooped up a handful of small white beans, the pearls of the prairie, saying,
00:33:23Soybeans look like a foot of water on the field in April when you're ready to plant and can't get in.
00:33:30Like three kids at the kitchen table eating macaroni and cheese five nights in a row.
00:33:35Or like a broken part on the combine when your credit with the implement dealer is nearly tapped.
00:33:39Soybeans look like prayers bouncing off the ceiling when prices on the Chicago grain market start to drop.
00:33:46Or like your old man's tears when you tell him how much the land might bring for subdivisions.
00:33:51Soybeans look like the first good night of sleep in weeks when you unload at the elevator and the kids get Christmas.
00:33:58He spat a little juice on the tire of the Cadillac, laughing despite himself and saying to the man,
00:34:03Now maybe you can tell me what a hundred grand looks like.
00:34:27I found out how to get to the museum.
00:34:28How's that?
00:34:29Go out to the main road and turn left and it's go four blocks and then take a right.
00:34:34And it's supposed to be on the corner there, so it should be no problem.
00:34:37Hi, y'all with the pork producers?
00:34:39No, we're just visiting. I'm from New Jersey.
00:34:42I'm from Got A Big One. You want to see?
00:34:44Sam. You'll have to excuse my friend. He's from South Florida.
00:34:48Lack of ocean water has affected his brain.
00:34:51Right.
00:34:52Oh, that's alright. I can see I got the wrong kind of plumbing for such a big man anyhow.
00:34:55Yeah, well, you're nuts.
00:34:56Besides, where does some pig farmer from Hicksville know about anything anyway?
00:35:00Sam, stop it. Settle down.
00:35:02What?
00:35:03Dan's not interested in her.
00:35:05He's got the hots for that waitress over at the coffee shop.
00:35:09What's her name? Barbara?
00:35:11Jesus Sam, what is it with you?
00:35:12Yeah.
00:35:13We should be treated with respect.
00:35:15Like an exquisite flower.
00:35:17Fine, I'm sorry.
00:35:19Hey, Roy.
00:35:21There's nothing I like better in a good pissing contest.
00:35:24Except, maybe a good drag race.
00:35:26What about it, Dan?
00:35:27What about what?
00:35:29You and me and those two rods out on the street.
00:35:31A race to the finish.
00:35:33We can't just take those cars.
00:35:35Sure we can. I've talked to the owners and they said it's fine.
00:35:38Anyway, I told them you're an up-and-coming Indy race car driver.
00:35:41And I'm Fireball Robbins.
00:35:43You know much about drag racing, do you?
00:35:45What about it, Dan?
00:35:46I can't race you. What if we wreck the cars? Or if we get hurt?
00:35:50Come on, let's do it. Loser buys the first round tonight.
00:35:53You're nuts. Why would I want to race you?
00:35:55Why not? What else is there to do?
00:35:57Why are you taunting me? What did I ever do to you?
00:36:00Everything.
00:36:02I can't race you.
00:36:04Look, your old man would be out on the car revving it up by now.
00:36:08Hell, he's probably looking down on you ready to disown you right now.
00:36:13Unless you're chicken.
00:36:14Leave him out of this.
00:36:16I'm not afraid of you. You want to race me? To the finish? Fine. Let's do it.
00:36:21Let's do it. The old drag strip south of town.
00:36:24Good luck, Dan!
00:36:25Do you think they'll be okay? I mean, do they know what they're doing?
00:36:29I sure as hell hope so.
00:36:31Ready? On your mark, get set, go!

00:40:09Nope. So tomorrow we're going to the museum and the grave site right?
00:40:13That's the plan. See you guys later.
00:40:15See ya.
00:40:16You know I wonder where he goes at night. It's like he's a reverse vampire or something.
00:40:21Out of sight before the moon rises.
00:40:23What?
00:40:24Vampire? Sam? You have quite imagination.
00:40:27Oh my shower feels good after a hot day.
00:40:46Yeah.
00:40:51Cheers.
00:40:57Jane.
00:41:07Why did you really come here?
00:41:09You're starting to sound like Roy.
00:41:20I don't know.
00:41:21Things just haven't been right at home for a while.
00:41:33I should move out.
00:41:34You know?
00:41:35Get my own place.
00:41:39Then I broke up with Floyd.
00:41:44My boyfriend.
00:41:45Or ex-boyfriend.
00:41:54I'm not in the mood right now.
00:41:59I don't need to have sex all the time.
00:42:02Yeah. Like I haven't heard that from you before.
00:42:05It's not just the sex, Jane.
00:42:09It was like you were somewhere else during dinner tonight.
00:42:14I've got a lot on my mind.
00:42:17Well like what?
00:42:20You don't understand.
00:42:23You're right. I don't understand.
00:42:25I can't.
00:42:26You won't even let me in.
00:42:29Look.
00:42:30Maybe it'd just be easier if we didn't see each other anymore.
00:42:34Life is too short for all this aggravation.
00:42:37I'm gonna get something to drink.
00:42:39Leave your key on the way out.
00:42:45It was just too...
00:42:50Immature.
00:43:07I'm gonna get some more wine.
00:43:25When you're giving us a drink.
00:43:27I'm going to get some more wine.
00:43:37All right?
00:43:57All right.
00:44:27All right.
00:44:57All right.
00:45:27All right.
00:45:29I'll be right back.
00:45:37So, cat got your tongue?
00:45:41No, I'm fine.
00:45:43No.
00:45:45Everything's okay.
00:45:49You missed breakfast.
00:45:51How are you?
00:45:53You guys ready to go?
00:45:55Yeah.
00:45:57Hey, why don't you stay with me for a minute?
00:46:01Sure.
00:46:03Okay.
00:46:04Okay, well, let's meet at the museum in half an hour.
00:46:07Yes.
00:46:08Make it an hour.
00:46:09I've got some things I want to do.
00:46:11Okay.
00:46:12Here you go.
00:46:13I should have known better.
00:46:14I mean, he's married.
00:46:15I should have known better.
00:46:16I mean, he's married.
00:46:17It's not a disease, you know.
00:46:18Well, he has a daughter.
00:46:19I'm just so...
00:46:20What...
00:46:21What happened happens.
00:46:22And I'm sure he feels the same way, so don't worry about it.
00:46:26I'm not some slam-bam, thank-you-ma'am type of person.
00:46:27Of course not, and I'm sure Adam doesn't think that way, so...
00:46:31I don't know.
00:46:33I just wish I could get my life straightened out.
00:46:35What do you mean?
00:46:36What do you mean?
00:46:37He feels the same way, so don't worry about it.
00:46:40I'm not some slam-bam, thank you ma'am type of person.
00:46:43Of course not.
00:46:44And I'm sure Adam doesn't think that way, so...
00:46:48I don't know.
00:46:50I just wish I could get my life straightened out.
00:46:54What do you mean?
00:46:57My dad tells me I should crawl out of my shell.
00:47:02Well, you can't crawl out of your shell unless you know what's keeping you stuck,
00:47:06so, um...
00:47:10What are you afraid of?
00:47:11Nothing.
00:47:13Look Jane, something's bugging you.
00:47:21Tell me about your mother.
00:47:24There's not much to tell.
00:47:27I don't remember her.
00:47:29Yes, you do.
00:47:30What?
00:47:31What happened that night?
00:47:35I don't know what you're talking about.
00:47:40I was five years old.
00:47:49A lot of boys woke me up.
00:47:59You!
00:48:00How could you?
00:48:02Why you marry me like I'm a child?
00:48:04You calm down!
00:48:05What do you think about you?
00:48:06You would've thought there were another woman!
00:48:08I'm sick!
00:48:09Why you do this to me!
00:48:12No!
00:48:13No, Jane!
00:48:14No!
00:48:15I'm sick!
00:48:16No...
00:48:17What?
00:48:18What...
00:48:19What?
00:48:20What?
00:48:21What?
00:48:22What?
00:48:23What?
00:48:24What?
00:48:25What?
00:48:26What?
00:48:27What?
00:48:29What?
00:48:31What?
00:48:32She ran outside and got into the car, she wasn't a very good driver anyway.
00:48:59Dad went out to borrow neighbor's car, but before he could leave, the police called and
00:49:18then she said that she was in an accident and had been killed.
00:49:28Dad, it was my fault of life.
00:49:35He killed her.
00:49:41It was his fault.
00:49:46It was his fault.
00:49:49And I hate him.
00:49:53He called you down and talked to me about this.
00:49:59No way!
00:50:00See you.
00:50:02Don't say anything you might regret.
00:50:08You should blame him.
00:50:09Too long to apologize.
00:50:15You should blame him.
00:50:33hello dad honey are you okay no i'm not okay i'm pissed off

00:56:52You look like you could use another cup of coffee.
00:56:56We'll miss the others. It's almost time to meet them at the museum.
00:56:59It's Sunday. The museum doesn't open till noon.
00:57:02Okay.
00:57:10Why didn't you mention it being Sunday earlier? You know, when we were all here having breakfast?
00:57:16To tell you the truth, I was trying to figure out what day it is myself, but time marches on.
00:57:23You're a strange dude, you know that. Sometimes I wonder.
00:57:27Yeah, I've heard that before.
00:57:30Sam, when are you going to come out?
00:57:35What is it with everyone? First the towel head, now you. I'm not gay, okay?
00:57:43Maybe I'm a little bisexual. You know, kind of gay.
00:57:50You mean like being kind of pregnant?
00:57:53Kind of gay my ass.
00:57:56Look, no one's going to love you unless you can learn to love yourself.
00:58:02And you can't love yourself unless you accept yourself.
00:58:07Don't you understand?
00:58:09You're a gay man. You're still a man.
00:58:13You're just gay.
00:58:15Anyway, just trust your instincts.
00:58:19If your friends have a problem with you being gay, then screw them.
00:58:23And your mom. Just give your mom some time. She'll always love you.
00:58:30What else matters?
00:58:32What else matters?
00:58:34About my job. The people I know.
00:58:37No.
00:58:38You don't have to wear a poster and you don't have to tell the whole world.
00:58:42Stop lying to yourself and the people that are most important to you.
00:58:47It's that easy?
00:58:52No.
00:58:53It's not easy.
00:58:56It's damn hard.
00:58:58No one said that life is easy or that life is fair.
00:59:03You just play the cards that you're taught.
00:59:06Sam.
00:59:07Do you have something you want to tell me?
00:59:17I'm gay.
00:59:27Yeah.
00:59:32I'm gay.
00:59:33See, that didn't kill you, did it?
00:59:37Let's go find the others at the museum, alright?
00:59:50There you guys are.
00:59:52We're heading to the grave site.
00:59:54The museum doesn't open for another hour.
00:59:56You guys go on.
00:59:57I was there this morning.
00:59:59Hey, I'll meet everyone at the museum, okay?
01:00:01Alright, see ya.
01:00:02Hey guys, hold up.
01:00:05I have something I have to say.
01:00:07I'm gay.
01:00:10Surprise, surprise.
01:00:12Good for you.
01:00:13Let's go.
01:00:14Let's go.
01:00:15Let's go.
01:00:16Let's go.
01:00:17Let's go.
01:00:18Let's go.
01:00:19Let's go.
01:00:29Let's go.
01:00:34Based on Sid Beisway's award-winning novel, Southwest of Paradise, Eddie's character Bobby
01:00:56finds his long-lost mother, Hallie, at a brothel.
01:01:04Hey cutie, I'm going to give you a freebie.
01:01:34It's open.
01:01:41Hey sweetie, that'll be five dollars and you pay me now.
01:01:49Come on, if you don't pay you can't play.
01:01:56Look, if you're thinking of hurting me, you better think again.
01:02:09I'll break every bone in your body.
01:02:12Mama, don't you recognize me?
01:02:15I'm Bobby.
01:02:16Okay, so that's the game you want to play.
01:02:23Sure honey, come on to mommy.
01:02:29I'll make you feel better.
01:02:31No, I am your son.
01:02:34Tom Baker's my father.
01:02:36Tom Baker?
01:02:42What did you say your name was?
01:02:47Bobby.
01:02:49Mama, why did you leave us?
01:02:55So what did your papa tell you?
01:02:58Nothing.
01:02:59He just said that you died when I was born.
01:03:02Listen Bobby, your papa raped me.
01:03:10My papa worked at the store your grandfather owned.
01:03:17I was just 13 years old.
01:03:23Your papa was a crazy person back then.
01:03:29Is your grandpapa still alive?
01:03:35No ma'am.
01:03:36He died just a few years ago.
01:03:45Well, when you were born, your grandpapa gave my family two hundred dollars and told them to send me away.
01:03:54Two hundred bucks!
01:03:59My papa gave me thirty dollars and sent me to San Francisco.
01:04:04And he kept the rest.
01:04:10I've been fending for myself ever since.
01:04:17Wasn't that great?
01:04:19Of course it was based on an award winning novel.
01:04:22But three movies, that's all he left us.
01:04:29I wonder if Eddie Ray had any idea of the influences he would have on world culture.
01:04:39Or how he would be marketed.
01:04:41You know, selling everything from cups to jeans.
01:04:44Well, I'd like to think he would be mad as hell about them co-opting him.
01:04:48I'm mad as hell about them co-opting him.
01:05:06Hey Roy.
01:05:07You guys.
01:05:11Sal was the grave site.
01:05:13He was okay.
01:05:14I felt something.
01:05:16I don't know.
01:05:18Yeah.
01:05:19There were definitely some vibes there.
01:05:22I felt something too.
01:05:24Vibes.
01:05:25At a grave site.
01:05:26You guys are...
01:05:29Yeah.
01:05:30Never mind.
01:05:31It's $5.50 apiece to get in this place.
01:05:33Welcome to the Eddie Ray Museum.
01:05:53This home is one of the places that Eddie Ray lived in during the time he lived in Fairview.
01:05:58The museum opened in 1968, ten years after his tragic death.
01:06:03We've had visitors from all 50 states and over 40 countries.
01:06:07Even people from Little Monaco, the smallest country in the world, have visited here.
01:06:11Um, I thought Vatican City was the smallest country in the world.
01:06:16We don't count that.
01:06:18Everything here is from the collection of Mr. Edward K. Hunter,
01:06:21who started collecting Eddie Ray memorabilia while he was a teenager, shortly after Eddie Ray's death.
01:06:27Mr. Hunter also authored the book, Will the Real Eddie Ray Please Stand Up?,
01:06:31which received critical acclaim and is on sale in our gift shop.
01:06:35Now, if you all follow me, we'll begin the tour.
01:06:51I'm a dude, a girl.
01:06:52I'm a girl, I'm a girl.
01:06:53I'm a girl.
01:06:54I'm a girl.
01:06:55I'm a girl.
01:06:56I'm a girl.
01:06:57You must accept the past and embrace the future.
01:06:58It's like a huge weight has been lifted off my back.
01:07:01You should be on the lookout for a nice girl, like Rose.
01:07:04Look, look, I'm not- I'm gay.
01:07:06I'm gay.
01:07:07You murdered her!
01:07:10You murdered her!
01:07:11You murdered her!
01:07:12I'm not right now.
01:07:14You are my real dad.
01:07:15You are my real dad.
01:07:16You are you?
01:07:17I gave up trying to understand you a long time ago.
01:07:27And that concludes our tour.
01:07:29I hope you've enjoyed our museum.
01:07:31Please feel free to roam around.
01:07:33If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask.
01:07:35Or you can always visit the gift shop.
01:07:37Oh, James, let's visit the gift shop.
01:07:47Hey, you young man.
01:07:49Yes?
01:07:51Don't speak to me like that.
01:07:53What day is this?
01:07:55Beg your pardon?
01:07:57Didn't you hear me?
01:07:59I asked you what day it is.
01:08:01Today's Sunday.
01:08:03What day is this?
01:08:05What day is this?
01:08:07I beg your pardon?
01:08:09Didn't you hear me?
01:08:11I asked you what day it is.
01:08:13Today's Sunday.
01:08:15Do you need any help?
01:08:17Are you crazy?
01:08:19Of course I need help.
01:08:25I mean...
01:08:31You look familiar.
01:08:33Don't I know you?
01:08:35Lordy, it's you.
01:08:37Praise the Lord, it's you. Ain't it?
01:08:45It's good to see you again.
01:08:49How have you been?
01:08:51You look like shit.
01:08:53What happened?
01:08:55Why are you here?
01:08:57Are you gonna take me away?
01:08:59No, it's not your time yet.
01:09:11Mother!
01:09:13Now, Mother, are you bothering this nice man?
01:09:17You promised you wouldn't run off like that.
01:09:19We said we were gonna stay together.
01:09:21Well, I...
01:09:23I was just...
01:09:25I don't remember...
01:09:27Now go back and see Annette, okay?
01:09:33I'm sorry.
01:09:35She's just...
01:09:37She's just very forgetful.
01:09:39You know, Mom loves coming to the museum,
01:09:41but her dementia is getting worse.
01:09:43It's difficult.
01:09:45She's not that old.
01:09:47I don't care that she was no trouble at all.
01:09:49How long has she been like that?
01:09:51Oh, it's been about a year.
01:09:53Well, at least that's when we first noticed.
01:09:55We moved her in with us about six months ago.
01:09:59I gotta go.
01:10:01Sure.
01:10:08Human mind is so fragile.
01:10:14It makes you...
01:10:17Realize how lucky you are.
01:10:27I better go get the others.
01:10:28We need to be...
01:10:29Heading back to Annapolis soon.
01:10:32I'm going back to the van.
01:10:34Alright.
01:10:47Thanks again for having fun.
01:10:48Sure.
01:10:49I see you've met Irene.
01:10:50Yeah.
01:10:51I did.
01:10:52She's the last one living, you know.
01:10:53What do you mean?
01:10:54She's the last person from Fairview who is still alive who knew Eddie Ray.
01:10:57Of course, she was four years old at the time, but still, Eddie was her cousin.
01:10:58Really?
01:10:59You know what's odd?
01:11:00Everyone from Fairview who knew Eddie Ray either moved away or died an early death.
01:11:04Some folks say it's a curse on the town.
01:11:05Some even blame us for his death.
01:11:06Some even blame us for his death.
01:11:07Wow.
01:11:08You have a safe trip.
01:11:09You have a safe trip.
01:11:10I'm sorry.
01:11:11I'm sorry.
01:11:12I'm sorry.
01:11:13I'm sorry.
01:11:14I'm sorry.
01:11:15I'm sorry.
01:11:16I'm sorry.
01:11:17I'm sorry.
01:11:18Tell me.
01:11:19Yeah.
01:11:20Yeah.
01:11:21I'll be happy.
01:11:26Yeah.
01:11:27I'm sorry.
01:11:28Come on.
01:11:29I'm sorry.
01:11:30Oh, my god.
01:11:31Everyone from Fairview who knew Eddie Ray either moved away or died an early death.
01:11:38Some folks say it's a curse on the town.
01:11:43Some even blame us for this death.
01:11:45Well.
01:11:46You have a safe trip now.
01:11:47Oh
01:12:17Adam, you better pull over for some gas.
01:12:24That's a good idea.
01:12:47Hey, hey, hey, hey.
01:13:17Roy.
01:13:32Yeah?
01:13:36I don't know what happened back there, but I don't believe your name is really Roy.
01:13:42I never said my name is Roy.
01:13:44I said that's what some folks call me.
01:13:46So who do you think I am?
01:13:48I don't believe in ghosts.
01:13:53Well, I didn't believe.
01:13:57Hell, now I'm not so sure.
01:14:00The ghost.
01:14:02Who's ghost?
01:14:09Eddie Ray's ghost.
01:14:12You've got to be kidding me.
01:14:15You've known me for three days and you still don't know anything.
01:14:19Christ, man, I don't look anything like Eddie Ray.
01:14:22He was, what, 24 years old when he died?
01:14:24Well, maybe after you die you continue to age.
01:14:26If that's the case, I'd be a hell of a lot older, wouldn't I?
01:14:29I'd be, what, 72?
01:14:30Alright, I don't know.
01:14:32But that woman, back in Fairview, she acted like she knew you.
01:14:39So?
01:14:40So she's the last living person from Fairview who knew Eddie Ray before he died.
01:14:45She was, what, nine years old when he left town.
01:14:49You know, you're nuts.
01:14:51In case you didn't notice, that lady is feeble-minded.
01:14:54Anyway, I was just being nice to her.
01:15:00She reminded me of someone I used to know.
01:15:07Alright.
01:15:09What about your outburst the other day at the drive?
01:15:13I was wondering when you were going to ask me about that again.
01:15:17You wouldn't understand.
01:15:20You wouldn't understand.
01:15:23When you look at the leaves on a tree, sunset, filled with wildflowers.
01:15:34Dammit, you don't get it.
01:15:35No.
01:15:38What are you talking about?
01:15:47I'll try a little new.
01:15:48I'll try.
01:15:52This is a gift.
01:15:56Like a bouquet of flowers.
01:16:02With the smell of fresh-baked sweet tea.
01:16:07The treasure is all too soon.
01:16:13It will be gone.
01:16:17And when it's gone, it's gone forever.
01:16:22Answers?
01:16:25The answers are not out there somewhere.
01:16:28They're inside.
01:16:33Ghost.
01:16:36I don't know what a ghost is.
01:16:40As a matter of fact, right now, I don't know what anything is.
01:16:48So Adam, why did you come to Fairfair?
01:16:53Did you find the answers you're looking for?
01:17:01I came on this trip looking for answers.
01:17:09And I learned that I can't find those answers
01:17:14in the arms of another woman or in some far off distant place.
01:17:20What I know now in my heart
01:17:22is that the greatest gift in the world
01:17:32is the love my family gives to me.
01:17:38And the love I give to them.
01:17:40And I will never, ever...
01:17:45Okay.
01:17:49This is where I say goodbye.
01:17:52You're not coming back to Indianapolis with us?
01:17:55No.
01:17:57What am I gonna tell the others?
01:18:00They won't ask.
01:18:02They won't remember.
01:18:03Will I remember you?
01:18:07Maybe.
01:18:09Maybe.
01:18:11Maybe not.
01:18:14Maybe only in your dreams.
01:18:19So...
01:18:21You are Eddie Ray's ghost.
01:18:26Those are your words, Adam, not mine.
01:18:29Just remember...
01:18:32You can't find the answers in Fairview.
01:18:35Fairview is just another small town.
01:18:39Somewhere in Indiana.
01:18:40In Indiana.
01:18:41With no one of you,
01:18:42in Indiana.
01:18:45In Indiana.
01:18:51In Indiana.
01:18:52Hey...
01:18:58Hey...
01:19:03Hey...
01:19:05Hey...
01:19:06Hey...
01:19:07Oh.
01:19:22Okay.
01:19:23Ready to roll?
01:19:25Sure.
01:19:26You ready to go home?
01:19:28Yep.
01:19:30I mean, yes.
01:19:31I'm ready.
01:19:34Ready or not, here I come.
01:19:36Not in the back seat, you're not.
01:19:38This has been quite a trip.
01:19:40I came out of the closet, and Jane phoned her father and called him everything but a white man,
01:19:45and then made up with him.
01:19:46And Dan's ready to move on with his life, but what about you, Adam?
01:19:52I'm fine.
01:19:54I mean, yeah.
01:19:58I'm fine.
01:20:01Let's go.
01:20:06Jane, I want you to know that-
01:20:14You don't have to say anything.
01:20:21Just give your wife a big kiss for me.
01:20:26I know you love her.
01:20:27And maybe we shouldn't-
01:20:33You know?
01:20:34Well, you know.
01:20:36Yeah.
01:20:40I understand.
01:20:43So what are you gonna-
01:20:46He's not the guy from the drive-in?
01:20:57Hey.
01:21:01Remember me?
01:21:03Need some help?
01:21:05Nah, she just overheated.
01:21:06It'll be okay in a couple of minutes.
01:21:08I do remember you.
01:21:10From the other day.
01:21:11Right.
01:21:12Got me to thinking about what happened.
01:21:13You know when them kids were killed?
01:21:14I dug out an old clipping and it seems that three teenagers were killed that night and two kids survived.
01:21:19Really?
01:21:20This girl was babysitting a four-year-old boy.
01:21:22She was supposed to be home watching him.
01:21:24Well, she took him with her on this date.
01:21:26And the wreck threw him from the car.
01:21:27They landed in a big haystack.
01:21:29The girl wasn't hurt too bad, but the boy was in real bad shape.
01:21:32Touch and go.
01:21:34I remember my mom telling me about it.
01:21:35The parents took him down to a children's hospital down south.
01:21:39They moved away a couple months later to be closer to the hospital.
01:21:42I don't know if he recovered, but I believe he did.
01:21:45That's strange.
01:21:46You're both pretty lucky.
01:21:47Oh yeah, Irene and Roy were lucky kids.
01:21:51Did you say Irene and Roy?
01:21:53Yeah, Irene.
01:21:54Eddie Ray's cousin.
01:21:55She's still alive.
01:21:57The little boy's real name was Michael Raymond.
01:22:00And I guess everybody called him Roy because he liked to play cowboys and he had this toy gun set he wore around all the time.
01:22:07That's weird.
01:22:08Do you remember the guy who was with us the other day throwing rocks at your screen?
01:22:12No.
01:22:14I remember you and the other folks in the van.
01:22:18Was there someone else with you?
01:22:19Come on.
01:22:26Alright, never mind.
01:22:28You sure you don't need some help?
01:22:29Nah, I'll be alright.
01:22:31You folks come back and see us.
01:22:32You know, you really ought to visit during the Eddie Ray Festival in September.
01:22:38It's quite an event.
01:22:40Yeah, we'll see if we can.
01:22:41Thanks.
01:22:42Take care.
01:22:44This is not a movie, baby.
01:22:48A happy ending is not guaranteed.
01:22:52And this is not one of those songs for the radio.
01:22:56You're not gonna write this one so easily.
01:23:00We've been talking for hours about it.
01:23:03But you could tell me so much more with just one kiss.
01:23:08I've been searching inside your big brown eyes.
01:23:12The more I see the greater the mystery is.
01:23:16This is what I've been waiting for.
01:23:20Just to know I don't know anymore.
01:23:23Is this what I've been waiting for?
01:23:29Ooh.
01:23:31Oh, this is not a lesson, honey.
01:23:35I'm not learning anything of any kind.
01:23:39It was almost a year ago that I visited Fairview.
01:23:42Now I'm working as a freelance copywriter and marketing consultant.
01:23:47Sam was promoted to shift supervisor.
01:23:50Dan is engaged.
01:23:51And Jane has an apartment, a cat, and a lover, in that order of importance.
01:23:58Sometimes I wonder about what actually took place last summer.
01:24:03Who was Roy?
01:24:05Was he real?
01:24:07Or just a figment of my imagination?
01:24:11Is this what I've been waiting for?
01:24:17Ooh.
